Ingredients

Directions

  1. Place the finely chopped pears and apples in a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan or Dutch oven.
  2. Add the sugar, lemon juice, and ground cinnamon to the fruit in the saucepan.
  3. Stir the mixture thoroughly to ensure the sugar and spices are evenly distributed among the fruits.
  4. Place the saucepan over high heat and bring the mixture to a full rolling boil, stirring frequently to prevent sticking.
  5. Once boiling, immediately stir in the liquid pectin.
  6. Return the mixture to a full rolling boil and boil hard for exactly 1 minute, stirring constantly.
  7. Remove the saucepan from the heat and skim off any foam from the surface using a spoon.
  8. Ladle the hot jam into sterile half-pint jars, leaving 1/4-inch headspace at the top.
  9. Wipe the rims of the jars clean, adjust the lids, and process in a boiling water canner according to altitude guidelines.
